Oh, I saw it listed as the 17th worst movie of all time on some Maxim list. Then again, it is Maxim.

What about Predator? And, how can you leave out Twins?

**fancylad** · 11-17-2009, 08:46 AM

i can and i did.

Predator was pretty awesome though... i guess i'd put that ahead of red sonja.

BTW. I was watching it on TV some time ago, and you know how sometimes they have a graphic after each commercials and audio saying something like "now returning to our Sunday movie..."? Well during predator after every commercial break the had a screen with audio saying "now returning to Predator starring Carl Weathers..." yeah - no mention of the huge muscly Austrian. Like i know Carl was pretty big back then, but perhaps there was another dude in that movie with more star power? I lol'd.
